What’s the first thing that comes to mind when you hear the word “fun”?

YOUTH…. Fun was so easy to have when I was younger. I had the time and the endurance to do the things that I found invigorating and stimulating.

Now, I can still plan to have the time, but the endurance is often in five minute intervals. It is hard to participate competitively in a tennis match… Or go THREE MINUTE quarters for a pick-up game of basketball and then hope that your team loses… The winners stay on policy is for the birds!

“FUN” now means:

A stroll in the park catching-up with a friend …

An all day hike (that is only five miles long) …

A blanket under a tree in the autumn evening with a good book …

A telescope for the nighttime stars.

What is your favorite time of day?

By necessity, I am a morning person. I need to be an early riser to allow time for the setting up of my day. I enjoy the nights the most however. I have been a Night-Owl since grade school.

Given the choice of anyone in the world, whom would you want have an evening with?

There could be so many…

Thomas Jefferson to discuss the struggles in writing the Declaration of Independence…

Martin Luther King, Jr. to discuss his believes on equality of all and how to implement this plan into action…

Stephen King to discuss the struggles of being an inexperienced writer and finding belief in oneself…

Michael Phelps to discuss the elements of teen-stardom and the abilities to find oneself in the masses of celebrity…

My father and mother in an anonymous interview about the lives they have lead and the choices that they have had to make…

Complete this sentence: Something that anyone can do that will guarantee my smile is… a very timely, out-of-the-box, politically-incorrect comment.

From the mouths of babes come the best insights and one-liners!
